Review: Although released last year, everything about this CD looks and sounds old-school: from the band's name, to the band's style, to the CD cover (white on black, xerocopied). There is a picture of the band on the cover that's simply hilarious: the vocalist is wearing a big, big pentagram that looks like the watches that old rappers were wearing 20 years ago. Getting back to the CD, it contains 2 studio or rehearsal recorded tracks with a not so great sound, but a good enough one, and an entire concert recorded live that sounds good. Pikodeath is a death grind band, a combination of Napalm Death and the old Florida death metal, with pretty catchy rhythms, clever guitar riffs and a good growling vocalist but they need to record this once more in a profi studio to reach the good part of that overpopulated Czech metal scene. What impressed me was the good instrumental execution on stage.
